CASE-BASED REASONING

Disclosed herein is a computer-implemented method of creating a new case in a case-based reasoning (CBR) system for monitoring a situation, the method comprising: determining a set of one or more cases from a plurality of cases in dependence on a received data stream comprising information on a monitored situation, wherein each case comprises information describing a problem and information describing a solution to the problem and the process of determining the set of one or more cases is performed without comparing the description of the problems of any of the plurality of cases with a previously generated current case comprising information describing the monitored situation; generating information describing a solution in dependence on information obtained from the determined set of one or more cases and/or in dependence on information received from a user interface; generating a current case comprising information describing the monitored situation in dependence on the received data stream; and generating a new case in dependence on the generated information describing a solution and the generated current case.
